PUP - Yukon Lyrics






In the Yukon valley
Where I spent my summer past
I was alone in the bush where
The tide's slow and the river moves fast

And, oh that golden temptress
That golden witch
We were on the tundra
In a land where the sun don't set

In the Yukon valley
Where you left me
You left me on my knees

On the Athabasca Delta
We retraced our tracks
All through the woods where we found
A compass and a prospector's mound

And I pushed off in my boat
With the gold prospector's ghost
Search forever
But you won't ever find your gold
The river swallowed it whole

In the Yukon valley
Where you left me
You left me on my knees

On the great slave river
To the West
To the West, I'm headed East
In the Yukon Valley
To the West
I watched you dying
As the temperature was rising

In the Yukon Valley
Where you left me
You left me on my knees

On the great slave river
To the West
To the West, but I'm headed East
In the Yukon valley
To the West
To the West
But I'm headed East

    One of the best punk rock songs of all time

  2. A.... C....

    I absolutely love this song, but...





    *The first time I heard this song I misinterpreted the line “A compass and a prospector’s mound,” as “Cum, piss in the prospector’s mouth.”*

  3. D.... K....

    A part of me wants to hear a choir version of this song

  4. B.... B....

    +Nathan Butler I bet that was amazing I'm from Florida so I don't get to see snow, but the stars above a waving lake are cool to see as well

    N.... B....

    Nathan Butler I tried it after doing meth and heroin all while masturbating. I'm being serious. I came when the guitar solo started then I blacked out in my room. Once again, I'm being serious.

    N.... B....
